"Qin Luo, Qin Luo, let's go to Cherry Blossom City! I really want those Corgi merchandise!"
Su Muwan shook Qin Luo's arm, her eyes pleading.
Qin Luo blinked and replied, "Sure, we can get there in the blink of an eye."
Using the shadow leap, they could travel anywhere instantly.
As soon as he said this, Su Muwan immediately shook her head, pouting in dissatisfaction. "No way! That's no different from using Doraemon's Anywhere Door! I won't get to experience any of the joy of traveling!"
"This time, I want to plan the route, decide how we'll get there, and research which restaurants to eat at and which streets to explore!"
Qin Luo looked at Su Muwan, who was brimming with excitement, and thought to himself,
*I hope this isn't just another short-lived enthusiasm...*
"Huh?"
Su Muwan noticed Qin Luo's silence and frowned, raising her head suspiciously to look at him. "Qin Luo? Are you secretly criticizing me in your mind?"
"No, definitely not!"
Qin Luo coughed lightly, pretending nothing had happened, and smiled. "But before we go, I need your help with something, Miss."
"What is it?"
"It's..."
...
...
Half an hour later.
On a street.
Wang Yun held a small dog keychain, walking happily along the roadside.
He had done some research earlier.
The internet said that girls who liked this kind of dog keychain probably had pets at home—either a dog or a cat.
So, yesterday, he went to a pet store and bought some dog and cat food.
And then, coincidentally, Lianlian had just asked him if he wanted to hang out.
Wang Yun's eyes sparkled with joy. This time, he was determined to seize the opportunity and pursue Lianlian properly!
He changed into new clothes and stopped in front of a reflective glass window to check his appearance.
"Everything should be fine, right?"
Wang Yun adjusted his collar and hair, feeling a sudden wave of nervousness.
He was so lucky to have met such a wonderful girl like Lianlian!
So...
Wang Yun took a deep breath. Once they were together, he would protect the best Lianlian in the world...
*Smack!!*
"Ying ying ying..."
Just as he was thinking this, a familiar voice reached his ears. Wang Yun froze.
He turned his head sharply and saw a scene that made his blood boil.
There,
Su Bailian was covering her face, looking up pitifully at the woman standing in front of her. "Lianlian was wrong... Lianlian just happened to have plans with a friend, so I ended up here."
"R-really, I didn't mean to offend Sister Su..."
Su Bailian's voice was as soft as a whisper, fragile as if it might break at any moment.
Her clear eyes were brimming with tears, and her trembling eyelashes made her look even more innocent and delicate.
She hunched her shoulders, trying to make herself less noticeable, but her helpless and pitiful demeanor only made others want to protect her more.
*Buzz—!!!*
A mix of anger and pity surged in Wang Yun's heart. He clenched his fists, his eyes turning red with fury as he roared, "Stop!!"
"Don't touch Lianlian!!!!"
*Boom!*
His voice thundered like a storm, shaking the entire area.
For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.
Wang Yun stepped forward, instantly positioning himself in front of Su Bailian. Seeing her reddened cheek and the pitiful look in her eyes, his heart ached as if it were being torn apart.
*Hiss!!!*
This was unforgivable!!
Wang Yun turned his furious gaze toward the perpetrator.
When he saw who it was, he roared even louder, "Su Muwan!!! How dare you bully Lianlian in broad daylight!"
Well, just as Qin Luo had predicted.
Su Muwan sighed inwardly. Why was she always cast as the villain?
But...
"Hmph!"
Su Muwan's expression turned cold and domineering. She crossed her arms and glanced disdainfully at Su Bailian, who was trembling on the ground. "She's just a foster daughter of the Su Family. I can do whatever I want to her."
"What does it have to do with an outsider like you?"
A foster daughter of the Su Family?!
Wang Yun was stunned. Lianlian was Su Muwan's sister?!
He looked down.
Su Bailian bit her lower lip lightly and looked up at Wang Yun, her eyes filled with complex and desolate emotions.
She forced a smile, her voice trembling as she said, "I-I'm sorry, Brother Yun... I never told you... I'm just a lowly foster daughter."
Su Bailian's voice was like a dandelion swaying in the wind, fragile and heartbreaking.
Tears glistened in her eyes, making her even more pitiful.
The forced smile was clearly a mask to hide her inner pain, making her appear even more vulnerable.
*Thump! Thump!*
Wang Yun's heart ached sharply. He suddenly realized that Lianlian's cheerful demeanor had been a facade all along.
Looking at how cruel Su Muwan was, it was clear how miserable Lianlian's life in the Su Family must have been!!
"Ahhhhh!!!"
Wang Yun's eyes turned bloodshot. He stood protectively in front of Su Bailian, glaring at Su Muwan with rage. "Even if Lianlian is a foster daughter, she hasn't done anything wrong!"
"Brother Yun?"
Su Bailian's expression faltered, and tears began to fall uncontrollably.
"Brother Yun... Please leave... Sister is very strong..."
She sobbed, tears streaming down her face.
Hearing this, Wang Yun completely lost his composure.
Even at the very end, Lianlian didn't ask him to save her. Instead, she was worried about him, telling him to leave because Su Muwan was too strong.
But...
Someone like her...
"Su Muwan!!"
Wang Yun roared at Su Muwan. "How could you lay a hand on someone as kind as Lianlian!!"
"You... You're just a...!"
"Poisonous—!"
*Smack!!*
"Ugh—!"
Before he could finish,
"Annoying."
A mocking voice interrupted him.
Qin Luo suddenly appeared in front of Wang Yun. He leisurely retracted his hand and looked at Wang Yun, who was tilting his head in shock, with a sneer. "A mere nobody like you dares to disrespect my young lady?"
"This slap is to teach you a lesson."
So fast!!
Wang Yun's pupils shook. He stiffly turned his head.
When he saw Qin Luo, he completely lost his mind.
Su Muwan and Qin Luo.
He had heard too much about this duo before coming to Jiang City!
Originally, he had thought, how bad could they really be?
But now...
"Ahhhhh!!"
Wang Yun roared, his spiritual energy surging.
[The Divine Fist System is at your service! Punch to grow stronger!]
[Host's rage detected! Please protect the person in front of you!]
[Reward: Unknown!]
As the system's prompts echoed in his mind, Wang Yun's fury reached its peak.
No one knew how he had obtained this system.
No one knew that the cowardly version of him had died long ago.
Now!
With the system, he had transcended ordinary limits! He would only throw punches for one purpose!
And that was!!
To protect the person he wanted to protect!!!
"You two bastards!!"
"Die—!"
Wang Yun roared, throwing a full-powered punch.
Lianlian, if no one protects you, if no one helps you...
Then I will!!
And then I...
*Smack—!*
Consciousness faded.
...
...
A moment later.
Looking at Wang Yun, who was lying unconscious on the ground, Su Muwan clapped her hands and complained, "Why do I always have to play the villain?"
"I've already been redeemed, haven't I?"
Su Bailian kicked the unconscious Wang Yun lightly, then rubbed her cheek, also complaining, "Why do I always have to play this kind of scheming girl? I'm just a simple and innocent girl, really."
Qin Luo: ...
Su Muwan: ...
In any case,
Qin Luo handed a small bottle to Su Bailian and said with a smile, "Stay here and wait for him to wake up. Once he does, you'll be able to join headquarters."
"After you get in, make sure to keep this with you."
Su Bailian held the bottle suspiciously and looked up, curious. "What is this?"
"Nothing much. Just something that can make someone lose all their cultivation if they drink it."
"??!!"
"Wait, what?! Isn't this dangerous? If I get caught, I'm done for!"
Su Bailian was shocked. Why was she always given such risky tasks!
"Relax."
Qin Luo reassured: "I’ve used my ability to mask the aura of this thing. No one will be able to detect it."
"These next few days, just get familiar with the headquarters. If anything comes up, don’t contact us for now."
Su Bailian suddenly understood: "Are you worried that contacting you might expose us?"
"No, it’s just that the young lady and I are going on a trip. We won’t be in Jiang City for a while."
Su Muwan also playfully patted the bewildered Su Bailian on the shoulder: "Make sure you take Boqi, that chubby dog, to the headquarters with you. We don’t want him making a mess at home with no one to clean up after him."
???
Su Bailian was stunned for a moment, then her eyes widened in shock.
She looked at the two of them, laughing and chatting, in disbelief.
Wait a minute!
I’m here at the headquarters, barely holding on, and you two are running off on a honeymoon?!
You! You two!! You two!!
"Alright then, have fun, Sister Su~"
I’ll remember this!! You two are something else!!
Just wait until I make it big at the headquarters! I!
I’m not coming back!!

young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled.

Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress?

Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
